When I put this album on it really sparked a great emotion and pride inside to be Irish. John McCormack sings these Irish classics with a powerful mans voice that really brings your imagination into the heart and sole of the music. This album is a peacful and relaxing trip down memory lane.John McCormack's singing style combines the beatiful melodys of a classical trained voice with the stricking sound of a strong Irish accent. This gives the album its uniqueness and gives it the storytelling quality that brings the peotic lyrics to life. This album is great value for money with up to eighteen tracks each track a popular classic of its own. The only issue with this album is it does contain all the classic Irish songs that are quite old and have been over played abit over the years.

Hello and welcome to Ciao... Talking of emotion... when I visited Dublin in 2000 I was reduced to tears whilst listening to the kids singing for money in the streets. Their little Irish voices had me sobbing and I have never forgotten the look on their faces... I so want to return soon.. Thanks.J.
